Reincarnation into the Barrier Master

Vieille then stayed in the room for about 30 minutes. He did not argue or try to negotiate. He just looked puzzled and tried to tell me something from time to time. ....... He kept doing that.

He was not acting in his usual relaxed and confident manner, and looked as if he were the Pope who leads the Church of Crimiana. There was only a girl.

As a result, Vieille said, "Let me think about it for a while," and turned to leave. I did not dare to say anything. Vieille was left with only two options. Either she accepts my condition or she establishes a way to exterminate the friendly flower by herself. But there is too little time for the latter. By the time I have established the extermination method, Aphrodite will already be covered with flowers.

There may be a way to move the capital ......, but it will surely reduce her centripetal force. There will be a fierce power struggle within the Klimiana. Flowers and power struggles....... With two enemies within, it will be difficult for Vieille to remain in her current position.

In a daze, she muttered something to Posehay, who was standing by her side without effort. Soon she disappeared. She returned to Aphrodite.

Just in case, I sent a reminder to Chi-wan, the master of Posehay, to follow up on Posehay's return with Vieille. He laughed and said not to worry.

I look around the empty room. It was a familiar sight, but somehow the atmosphere of the room seemed to have changed.

"I don't know, man.

I let out a chuckle, got up slowly, and went back to my usual office.

I was so happy to be back in the Oval Office.

"...... still hurts, doesn't it?"

It was Rico who was muttering in a small voice. She was in my arms, not a stitch on her. I was so hit on the mark that I couldn't say anything and just kept stroking Rico's body.

As usual, her skin was really beautiful. Stroking her back like this, I feel at ease.

"But there is no turning back now. Linos, you have to make up your mind.

"Yes."

With that, I put some strength in my arms that are holding him.

Rico had read my mind completely. This time, Vieille's life would be in danger, maybe, or more likely, she would be in danger. Besides, many people's lives may be in danger in the Crimianist countries. And he might have triggered a situation that would have resulted in the loss of many lives. When I thought about it calmly, my mind was still filled with hesitation and confusion.

But what Vieille had done was unforgivable. This is the best way. I told myself over and over again.

I returned to my residence in the capital and told my family about today. I thought I had explained everything to them without showing any hesitation. I explained it calmly and simply.

May, Sadie, Soleil, Matkal ....... I could see that they all had full confidence in my decision. Matocal, for example, even suggested that I train soldiers in case of a civil war in Aphrodite. I had never told Mato any of these things, but she understood my deepest feelings.

To be honest, it made me happy. I felt, though I did not express it in words, the kindness of the other wives, and I felt saved.

At night, when I went to bed, Rico came to me. I thought she had Idea with her, but tonight she was alone. Usually she comes with Idea and we sleep together in the river. He usually tucked him into bed while telling him stories, but this time he let Idea sleep in Sadie's room first.

Sadie welcomed him and above all, his younger sister, Piatrice, was happy to see him. She loves her big brother Idea and is always close to him. She is very attached to Liko and the other wives, and her loving smile is becoming a mood-maker in our house.

While talking about this, Rico brushes his hair and gets ready for bed. I thought she would come straight to bed with me, but she slowly took off her pajamas and got into bed without a stitch of clothes on while we were talking about such trivial matters.

I was a little upset by this unusual turn of events. Recently, I had never taken off my clothes on my own because of my age, so Rico's body looked even more beautiful than usual. I could not stop my heart from beating faster.

It was certainly different from the usual arrangement of making love to her tenderly with lips gently pressed together and whispering various words to each other. In hindsight, I may have done things a little too roughly and hastily. I'm sorry...... I was about to say those words when Rico suddenly looked up and stared at me.

"......Even if the whole world is against you, I'm on your side, Linos."

"...... Rico."

"Even if you sell your soul to the devil, I will never leave you. So, Linos, don't hesitate to ......"

Rico said no more words. I covered her lips with a kiss.

I kissed her lips.

At the same time, in Aphrodite, the capital of the new Crimiana cult, the cardinals were looking puzzled. Vieille, the Pope, had not come out of his room.

In the Crimiana cult, the Pope was in charge of all the payments. Therefore, no payment is made unless Vieille appears in her office. On her desk, there was a pile of papers that had been piled up since this morning.

"Your Holiness the Pope, are you uncomfortable today or something?"

It was Ron Eslotel who was speaking to the young cardinals with a gentle smile on his face. He speaks in a gentle tone of voice to the cardinals who are at their wits' end in their offices in the Pontifical Temple, as if to thank them for their hard work.

"You are not sick?　Then why?　...... Well, His Holiness the Pope must be tired. Sometimes you need a rest. It's not easy for you. You have been waiting for His Holiness all day, haven't you?"

"Ha ....... I've come up several times to ask you to come ......."

"Well, it's a rare occurrence. It has never happened before, has it?　Despite all these requests, His Holiness the Pope has never come to the Oval Office.

"ha ......"

"Well, it happens. Well, that's how it happens. It's such a rare occurrence. You are very lucky.

"Such ......"

"Good night to you too. You must be tired. You must be tired. We've waited this long and His Holiness the Pope is not coming. I think it's safe to say that he won't be coming today. If you are to blame, you can mention my name.

After he had the young cardinal step back, Ron Esrotel looked around the room, took a piece of paper out of his pocket, and looked at it intently. It contained the details of the dispatch of Cardinal Mataca to Agartha.

He let out a sly smile, put the paper in his hand back in his pocket, and slowly left the room. .......
